About Homeschool Day

Our Homeschool Day programs encourage students of all ages to explore and connect with nature and science!

Each session features a different theme and may include hands-on activities, crafts, experiments, animal encounters, and private tours. While not a replacement for at-home learning, our programs provide exciting opportunities for discovery, adventure, and outdoor exploration. After checking in at the front lobby, parents and children are invited to explore a variety of themed activity centers at their own pace. Each center offers engaging, educational content tied to the day's topic. Families are welcome to move through the stations in any order.

Reservations are required -- register now and secure your spot!
